So we've managed to halve it, but 5-10 people a month are still paying 40% more than they need to by using Apple Pay.Apple insist on taking 20% of the sale price if you purchase using Apple Pay in the Patreon app. Because of math and Patreon automatically rounding, this comes out as making a $14 premium membership cost $20.(It also means Apple hold the payment for 90 days, because apparently they're short of money, but that's a much smaller inconvenience to us).So yeah, save money, and use another method if you can (there should always be another option to do so, or just subscribe outside the app).
